Almost finisht, this one was a pain in the a..,I had some problems with the matt claer cote from tamiya, it becames totally white, my hart stops ticking, but I had a quick reaction and give it a gloss clear cote and the white was almost gone, oefffff. Greetings Phil, endjoy the pictures

Very nice pix! THX for sharing. The weathering went very fine and is not too much. I love the way you made the washing! I recommend Revell-Enamel-Mattcoate. It works absolutely great! My conclusion: Great Viper and superb job!😉

Thx Holger, I just want to try the Tamiya matt coate, normally I take Vallejo matt Coate, I now the revell-enamel coate but I take the step to the acryllics, greetings Phil

I too only use acrylics but the Revellstuff is the best i know for this job. I used Lifecolour, Tamiya, Vallejo and all the brands but it always ruined my models. So i stay with Revell Matt coate!

Hi Philip,
I am not the expert on US planes but results of painting an weathering looks very good.
PS: I did not do the step to acrylics but I use enamels ( Humbrol, Revell, x-tra) as well as acrylics (Tamiya and Vallejo) mixed up without any problems

Christian, this is the first time I used Tamiya coate, I still don't now what went wrong, I used also the enamels colors that I still have, it's a waist to do them away, I like to work with these one but it's not so good for the healfty, did I ride this good? Greetings Phil

5 January 2012, 08:16
Philip De Keyser
Hi Holger, it would be the kit from Italeri, the Phantom II F-4E in the Vietnam scheme with the decals from Aero Master Phantoms over Vietnam, I replaced the ejection seats from the kit with two new seat from QB (QuickBoost), I just started with him, when it's time to take pictures I'l placed them on the net, greetings Phil

@Stefaan, I had no problems with the Build of this F16, just be careful with the fuselages, these are in 4 parts, that needs some dryfitting.
